For the record, see also: http://browserplus.yahoo.com/developer/explore/?s=Motion Demo: http://browserplus.yahoo.com/demos/marbles/intro It isn't based on events (you have to poll continuously) and uses values ranging from -127 to 128 (well, it's rather bizarre: "x" seems to range from -127 to 128 while y ranges from -128 to 127! –I can't say for "z" as my laptop doesn't have an accelerometer–) And it has a fallback on mouse: 0,0 being the center of the screen (128,-128 being the top-left corner, and -127,127 the bottom-right corner) and the "z" coordinate always being 0. -- Thomas Broyer
